Steph's Evolution: Let the Open BEGIN!
http://stephs-evolution.blogspot.com/2012/03/let-open-begin.html
Wednesday, March 7, 2012. Let the Open BEGIN! My favorite picture of some of my favorite people! The CIRC was an absolute BLAST! It’s that time again…the CrossFit Open is upon us. The first WOD, 12.1 was released on February 22. Needless to say after the first week’s WOD I was praying for a heavy barbell! 122 was announced. It was a snatch ladder, 30 snatches at 45lbs, 30 snatches at 75lbs, 30 snatches at 100lbs, and max snatches at 120lbs. That last round is PR weight! Or cleans and double-unders? Last ...

Steph's Evolution: Reflection
http://stephs-evolution.blogspot.com/2012/04/reflection.html
Friday, April 13, 2012. I came across my goals from last summer. Let’s see how much progress I’ve made…. CrossFit Goals July 2011. I don’t have unassisted ring dips, I can only do one. I don’t have unassisted HSPU’s, I can’t even do one. Dead hang pull-up without a band. I DID get an unassisted dead hang pull-up recently though! Work on a weakness every day after class. Get down and stay at 150lbs. Be more mentally tough. I have had more confidence in myself and really am starting to believe I am strong.

Steph's Evolution: Low Energy
http://stephs-evolution.blogspot.com/2012/04/low-energy.html
Wednesday, April 11, 2012. Round, but from there on I lost a little steam. I ended up with 6 rounds 28 double unders. I was pleased with my score as I moved the entire 12:00 and pushed myself for good form. Monday night I braised a chuck roast, which turned out delicious! Tuesday night we had skirt steak lettuce wraps. I topped them with grilled peppers and pico de gallo. They were so flavorful! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

http://stephs-evolution.blogspot.com/2012/10/6-months-later.html
Wednesday, October 3, 2012. Well, this should come as no surprise that I've been on a 6 month hiatus and have finally decided to get back on track. This has been my typical trend the last 2 years or so. Let's play some catch up.back in May Zach proposed! I'm tired of looking back at my goals I have set for myself and not making one bit of progress. Six months ago I set the following goals:. 183; Get down to 150 and STAY THERE! 183; Additional Running/rowing WOD’s 2 times a week. October 2nd, 2012 GOALS:.

Steph's Evolution: Press PR!
http://stephs-evolution.blogspot.com/2012/03/press-pr.html
Friday, March 9, 2012. Yesterday we worked up to a new single rep max for shoulder press. I’ve been feeling a little stronger overhead lately so I was really hoping to PR. I put up my old SRM 42kg up fairly easily. So, I went ahead and loaded my bar to 43kg, and it went up without a hitch! I got a little greedy and stuck on one more kilo hoping to PR by 2 but it wasn’t happening. Hey, I’ll take a 1kg PR on my press! It’s been a really long time since I’ve put that kind of weight overhead.

Steph's Evolution: Feelin' Squatty
http://stephs-evolution.blogspot.com/2012/04/feelin-squatty.html
Tuesday, April 3, 2012. Yesterday we spent the majority of class working on back squats. I warmed up with 5 reps at 45kg, rested 2:00 then did 1 dead hang pull-up, rested another 2:00 and repeated the cycle @ 3x68kg, 1x77kg, 1x84kg, 1x91kg, 1x93kg. 93kg was a 2kg PR for me! I ate a yummy salad full of greens, grilled chicken, bacon, tomato, and hard boiled eggs for lunch that was topped with homemade Dijon vinaigrette for lunch yesterday. For dinner I had made a chuck roast from a recipe.

Steph's Evolution: Overdue Update
http://stephs-evolution.blogspot.com/2012/04/overdue-update.html
Monday, April 2, 2012. Well, I haven’t written in a while & I've missed blogging about 12.3, 12.4, and 12.5. Once Saturday morning rolled around and I had seen how a few others did on 12.3 I changed my goal to 5 rounds from the original 7 I had written on March 9. Kirsten C was a killer counter for me; she really encouraged me and kept me moving when I just wanted to rest. Thanks darlin’! Overall in the NC Region. CrossFit Fire took 50.

Steph's Evolution: Rough Week
http://stephs-evolution.blogspot.com/2012/04/rough-week.html
Monday, April 9, 2012. Tuesday for strength we working toward a new SRM on floor press. I maxed out at 60kg which was a 5kg PR for me in just 5 months! The WOD was max burpees in 3:00. I tallied up 49 total reps. I hope this WOD comes up again in the future and I can beat that score! Wednesday was a rest day. Zach and I have been eating REALLY clean. I am feeling better and actually woke up with a little more energy than normal today. I’ve been preparing meals consisting of meat and veggies...

Steph's Evolution: 36 Hours
http://stephs-evolution.blogspot.com/2012/01/36-hours.html
Wednesday, January 4, 2012. Last night I headed to bed at 10pm but couldn’t fall asleep until 2am and the 4 hours of sleep I finally got was restless. After that awful night’s sleep I stepped on the scale to find I’m down 5lbs. I was extremely happy with how quickly the weight is coming off. It seems like I’ll be back down to my goal weight in no time at this pace! Currently I’m drinking some natural calm hoping it’ll help me have a better night’s sleep. G’night!
